This single-level family home blends rural-residential serenity and urban convenience, just 11km from Brisbane’s CBD and only minutes from the vibrant Kenmore Village and Kenmore Plaza.

Perched on approximately 3,794sqm atop a hill on a sprawling property,  the home commands breathtaking views of rolling hills, treetops, and distant mountains, with a North-South orientation.

Overlooking a resort-style saltwater pool surrounded by tropical landscaping and a championship-sized tennis court, the grounds invite endless entertainment possibilities, from backyard cricket or tennis matches under the floodlights to elegant evening soirees beneath fairy lights.

Lush, landscaped gardens, lined with mature trees and manicured hedges provide both a natural buffer from neighbours and a haven for all kinds of wildlife including wallabies, lorikeets, and cockatoos.

“This is the perfect family home: private, peaceful, but accessible,” Rachael Spinks told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“The property has an elevated position with views with a flat usable block that feels like acreage but without the maintenance because it is surrounded by trees and native wildlife," Rachael explained. 

“It is easy living, with the home all on one level and fantastic entertaining areas. The layout really suits the typical Queensland lifestyle, offering relaxed outdoor entertaining and living. The kitchen opens right up onto the outdoor entertaining area, pool and tennis court.”

Inside, the home’s expansive windows frame uninterrupted views of the treetops and mountains, bringing a sense of the outdoors in. The light-filled foyer does this literally, hosting  a tall, lush palm in a stunning atrium setting, which can be enjoyed from the adjacent sunken living room. 

Laid out for easy family co-existence, the home’s distinct wings each offer the option for both privacy and connection when required. To the left of the foyer is a grand recreation room and billiards room with soaring 15-foot vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. These rooms flow to both the front and rear gardens, ensuring cooling natural breezes and effortless movement from indoors to the resort-style outdoor facilities.

Adjacent to the recreation room is the children’s wing, with two generous and a light-filled shared bathroom, while the generous master suite is located on the opposite side of the home. With windows on three sides, a walk-in robe, ensuite, and doors to a private terrace overlooking the lush lawn, this space offers a true escape. An additional bedroom, family bathroom, laundry, and a spacious home office are also located in this wing. 

Social areas are positioned at the centre of the home, including the spacious dining room which opens to both the modern kitchen and to the outdoor terrace, catering to gatherings large and small.

From the minimalist kitchen, which features a large walk-in pantry, Caesarstone and stainless-steel benchtops and sleek neutral coloured cabinetry, large timber framed glass doors disappear into the wall cavity to open directly to the outdoor entertaining kitchen, while a bank of bi-fold windows fold away to also allow easy service. 

The adjoining north facing outdoor entertaining terrace offers areas for both lounging and space large enough for a long table to seat many. With both heaters and industrial fans installed in the ceiling, the outdoor room has been designed for all seasons and year-round comfort. 

There is a three-car garage, plus carport and multiple guest carparks available inside the secure gated property along with a storage shed with 9m x 3m awning.
